I wanted to get this the "right" way, the old way, but i patch in and get it.  I dont want it, it sucks where did all the fun go where me and my clan mates used to win every game just so we got close to it, now we cant be assed as  most of us have it.

I just think its lame, and i feel sorry for the people who got the ribbon the right way, only to find out EA are giving them away without hardly any effort involved anymore, granted its still hard(ish) to get but where did the challenge go of getting it.

Just my 2 pence

The fun is in the game, not some fake badge or medal IMO

I know man. The people that got it the hard way can always be proud, but now every noob and his dog will have it.

I know, I'm pissed they removed the hard stuff from it.

I was never going to get it, but now it means nothing, just like expert knife and some other badges.

It makes it easy, but alot of things are now what I consider pansy awards.

Welp now atleast it might stop some of the team stacking and team switching just for Win loss ratios and let the game get back to being a bit more fun instead of folks being preoccupied with W/L ratios.

Then why don't you just continue on to the original requirements and pretend you don't have it until then?

TBH, it knid of sucks for those players that went about getting a 3:1 W/L ratio only to find out now that its been a bit of a waste i know if i had it the "old" way i would be a bit pissed of the requirments changing.

Granted yes, but that is what makes this game alot more enjoyable is reciving badges/medals/ribbons to show your progress in the game.

Same here, my w/l is at 2.54; I really wanted to work hard and earn it.  This is so fucked up.

I agree... Its fun teamstacking and winning 10 in a row, but now ill be able to go head to head with some of my clanmates and that will be alot more fun than owning noobs.  This will help help prevent USMC whoring which is always a concern on my TIGERLAND server.

Good idea Solar~Fire, im going to do that, just because i think EA messed up the awards, now any noob with a tube can get that award. i cant wait for some nooby commander to be dropping hummv's on his team as they  spawn at the arty as us on karkand.

You still need 25000 commander points and 100 commander hours...You won't find many "noobs" with that.  3-1 WL Ratio only encouraged team switching and team stacking.  Only like 650 people even had the WCR of like 400,000 players.

Do you guys really believe that someone with 100hrs and 25,000 Command points is a Noob??!!

The guys that got it legitimately will still be able to brag and you'll be able to tell if someone got it pre 1.3.

I think it will just make it harder to be a Commander now because everyone will be trying for it.

I worked my ass and anus off from 1.56 to my current 2.8. 200 wins away from the OLD WCR. I'm still intending to sweat blood to try and reach 3. Just to prove I can. And that I'm a god amongst.. Men. Thai men.

I had a 3.17 and 21 hours as commander as of last night.

Quite frankly, I'm pissed.

I'm not saying that everyone who has 100hrs and 25,000 Command points is a Noob, But it doesnt mean they can't be a noob.

You dont even have to do anything to get the command points, Just apply for command. Obviously commanding well helps but still...

If somone has 100hrs and 25,000 Command points, it doesnt mean they are automaticly not a noob.
